Sculpture In The Close (2)

'GLOWING PROMISE' wooden sculptures by Claire Barclay are sited in the garden behind Jesus College Chapel.    Quote.......'Glowing Promise is a significant aspect of the viewer's experience, the distribution of attention. The individual objects combined in a single work often connote specific traditions of craftmanship and manufacture.......The viewer's attention is drawn towards the material itself and the manner on which it has been worked.......The upward gaze takes in the elevation of  monumental buildings and the scale of the other elements seems to  place the built environment at the viewer's disposal'    Close up they are lovely pieces of work and this is one blog that I could understand what the sculptor was getting at.
